Data centre surveys: the facility and the power connection
Our data centre surveys cover both halves of the job: the facility and the power that feeds it. Hyperscale and enterprise builds are technically demanding. The building and its grid connection are often surveyed by different suppliers, as two separate jobs. We do both, with one team.
That means one survey control network, one point of contact and no gaps between datasets. We have surveyed data centre sites at Enfield in North London, at Wishaw and at Melbourne Science Park in Royston.
Data centre surveys for the building and the grid connection from one supplier
Data centre power connections are already part of our energy work. So the same team that surveys your data hall and plant yard can also survey the substation and the cable route that feeds them.
For you, that means fewer handovers between suppliers. Everything ties into the same coordinates, so your designers aren’t left reconciling two sets of data.
Precision surveys to tight tolerances
Data centre work isn’t about volume. It’s about precision. Our data centre services include:
- Setting out and control networks – Our site engineers set out to tight tolerances and keep the build aligned to design.
- PAS 128 utility mapping – Underground utility surveys that locate buried services around critical infrastructure.
- Measured surveys in Revit – Measured building surveys that record every plant space as a Revit model.
- Structural monitoring – Ongoing monitoring of structures and critical services after construction.
Surveys planned for live, secure sites
Data centres are secure and often live. We plan access with your site team and work to your permits, inductions and security rules. We hold ISO 27001 for information security, so your site data is handled with care.
Structural Monitoring
Once construction is complete we can monitor structures and critical services across the site as an ongoing relationship.
Data Centre FAQ’s
Most data centre projects need a topographic survey, a PAS 128 utility survey and a survey control network before design. During the build, setting out keeps work to tight tolerances. Measured surveys in Revit record plant spaces, and structural monitoring protects critical assets once the site is live.
Yes. Grid connection work is part of our energy portfolio. One team can survey the data hall, the plant yard, the substation and the cable route. Everything sits on one control network, so the datasets line up.
Yes. We plan access with your site team and follow your permits, inductions and security rules. We also hold ISO 27001 for information security, so your site data stays protected.
